    "abstract": "This is the first of a series of papers devoted to the development of the\ninvariant imbedding theory of mode conversion in inhomogeneous plasmas. A new\nversion of the invariant imbedding theory of wave propagation in inhomogeneous\nmedia allows one to solve a wide variety of coupled wave equations exactly and\nefficiently, even in the cases where the material parameters change\ndiscontinuously at the boundaries and inside the inhomogeneous medium. In this\npaper, the invariant imbedding method is applied to the mode conversion of the\nsimplest kind, that is the conversion of $p$-polarized electromagnetic waves\ninto electrostatic modes in cold, unmagnetized plasmas. The mode conversion\ncoefficient and the field distribution are calculated exactly for linear and\nparabolic plasma density profiles and compared quantitatively with previous\nresults.",
